Two New Special Events Announced for 2014 Epcot Food and Wine Festival

With just a few more weeks until the 2014 Epcot Food and Wine Festival starts, Disney has announced two new special events.

The first event, Epcot Food and Wine Late Nights LIVE!, offers guests an after-hours street party every Tuesday and Thursday night during the course of the festival. The street party begins September 23.

The Late Nights LIVE festival costs $79 per person (plus tax) and includes music, entertainment, and six items from different marketplace booths. Guests who are only attending the event will not need to purchase admission to Epcot.

The other event is the Epcot Food & Wine Premium Package and will happen on Mondays through Thursdays during the Festival.

Guests purchasing this package will have the chance to “sip and savor dozens of unique, fresh flavors from six continents.” This package is only available for guest at Walt Disney World Resort hotels, the Swan & Dolphin Resorts, and those who live in Golden Oak.

The Premium Package costs $199 plus tax and also includes an in-room gift bag with a bottle of wine, a Food & Wine Festival wine glass, truffles, and credentials for the Premium Package area.

The package also includes a themed Magic Band, a $50 gift card, and access to the Premium Package Areas around the World Showcase. Admission to one Late Nights LIVE event is also included.

Guests who purchase this package will be able to order food items from select marketplace booths and have those items delivered to them.
